A Real Satanist, A Benevolent Haunting

We got a new plot thread – Liam and Nightspore. TW: villain with hateful views, violent death.

Three days washed into His new birth,
three days walking with my Savior on Earth,
before I saw Him face to face (heh);
the martyrs toss their heads like Graduation Day.
Caught a bullet in my skull before twenty-five
but it’s written in blood with the Priest-King’s sign:
Jesus Freaks will never die.

‘Baby Christian Mania’ (but it never stops);
if you’re sick of it—hey, it’s the justice of God,
cuz there’s a rainbow-knit glove still stained in brains
and you know you can’t kill me over again.
So I say ‘God loves you,’ and you roll your eyes
(well hey, I never got to evangelize!)
but Jesus Freaks will never die.

Maybe you thought you could shut me up
if you summoned the Devil with my spilled blood,
but you can’t stop mercy, yeah, we don’t stay dead
so I’ll keep heaping coals of love on your head
and tear down the Black Sun you hatefully fly,
cuz my God is a Lion from a Jewish tribe
and Jesus Freaks will never die.
